I didn't write the app. I want to be able to disable the mnemonics globally, and there doesn't appear to be a way to do that in gtk-3. John On 12/08/2016 03:38 PM, Paul Davis wrote:
Don't create mnemonics when creating menu items. That's all. Our app (Ardour) is GTK (2) but we never define any menu mnemonics, and consequently there are no Alt-* bindings created by GTK (we need all available bindings for the app's own control and management.

I can see that some users use that, but others (like me) prefer to rebind alt to other functionality (e.g. find in Firefox). Looking into this launchpad ticket [1], it appears that gtk is the root cause here, which is why I'm bringing it up on this list. 1: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1113420 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1113420> There are a handful of suggestions on that ticket, none of which seem to apply to gtk-3. Is there another way to reconfigure gtk in this regard? It seems to be a problem across a variety of window managers (I've seen it in xfce4/xfwm, unity, and lxde/openbox). I didn't see any tickets filed about this in the gtk bug tracker, but searching for "alt menu" resulted in a lot f hits...
